I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel! The location is fantastic, very close to the Mimosa mall with tons of dining options. The room was in great condition and the king-sized bed was super comfortable. However, I felt that the service needed a little more motivation to reach its potential. Overall, it's a good place to stay for the price, but there's definitely room for improvement.
